Medical Examiner Services – where we are now and where we are going in 2022

Speaker: Dr Mette Rodgers (Regional Medical Examiner for London)

Dr Mette Rodgers is a Consultant in Sexual Health and HIV at Croydon University Hospital. She is Associate Medical Director and Lead for Appraisal and Revalidation at Croydon. Since 2019 she has been the Regional Medical Examiner who leads the London team of “independent senior doctor(s) whose role is to enhance the governance and regulatory systems by scrutinising the deaths of patients not under review or inquest by the coroner”. Thus far medical examiners have operated within the framework of hospital trust(s) but they are beginning to be introduced more widely and in the community.
